    Author: Cornacchiari M, Rinaldi E, Corti M, Biasioli R.
    Journal: Minerva Med; 1990 Dec; 81(12):905-8. PubMed ID: 2280883.
    Abstract:
    A case of multiple retrofacial abscesses (left psoas and left paraspinal muscles) due to septic embolization probably arising from a staphylococcus aureus infection of a phlebopathic ulcer of the leg is reported. The Authors stress the pathogenetic rarity of the clinical picture, the usefulness of computed tomography for a correct diagnosis and for the follow-up of the treatment's efficacy, the favourable clinical course with medical therapy.
